Can you try unplugging the unit, let it sit for a minute and then plug it back in to see if we can stop the lights from flashing. IF they stop flashing, we can try to put it into a diagnostics mode to get the error codes.

OK. Below is the diagnostic test procedure can you please run it and tell me the error code you get.Position cycle selector knob to the 3 O’clock position.2. Press and hold the Select and Pause Cancel buttons simultaneously for six seconds.3. Immediately after, press and hold the START and Pause Cancel buttons simultaneously for 4 seconds.4. Rotate the cycle selector knob to the 2 O’clock position.

Ok, try this. Rotate the cycle selector knob clockwise 3 settings from the normal cycle option. The press and hold the select and pause cancel buttons simultaneously for 6 seconds. The press and hold the start and pause cancel buttons simultaneously for 4 seconds. Then turn the cycle selector knob 1 click counter clockwise. You might have to do this a couple of times to get it right. However, once you do it right, you will get the error code in the display.

The error means that the control thermistor was not sensing a temperature rise. If it is heating and you get this error than the control thermistor needs to be replaced.

The control thermistor is located on the blower housing. To access remove the bottom panel on the front by removing the two screw on the bottom of the panel. Once the panel is removed, you will see the blower housing. It is a plastic housing with a fan on it. On that housing is a thermistor with two wires. That is the defective part.

The part number isNNN-NN-NNNN You can order the part and searspartsdirect.com.
